Any idea why custom collections are incredibly slow to load on a safari macbook browser especially when they have images. To an extent you feel its not possible to use them in a live app. - The table has got only 80 rows - I only display 12 at a time - I see Glide manages the images through Cloudinary. What is the problem then? Is it the display of a custom collection in a grid layout? the screen rendering the height of each card etc… Any advice would be appreciated. ---

I’ve not noticed this before. Are you able to replicate the issue in another App? If yes, could you create a sample App that exhibits the behaviour and share the link? ---

I was able to replicate this behaviour. As discussed separately, best course of action is to log a support ticket with Glide. I’ll also tag this thread for escalation. ---

I have to confirm that if the image inside the custom collection is replaced by a card collection (this item) then the performance becomes HUGELY better. ---
